Shiksha Top Questions

The only educational requirement for CPL training is 10+2 with PCM as its subjects. No graduation or post graduation is required.
In case you do not have PCM at 10+2 level, you shall stand ineligible for the course.
There are although provisions for those candidates who do not have PCM at 10+2 level and are interested in pursuing CPL training. They should appear for maths to complete the trio of PCM in the next session of board exams. After clearing maths at 10+2 level, they shall qualify with PCM and hence shall fall eligible for the course.
The other may remain as additional subjects, although they are of no use.
Like I mentioned earlier also, no Graduation or Post Graduation is required to pursue CPL training, lnless you are looking to join the defence forces as a Flying Officer (Pilot).
In defence services, they require graduation if you go through AFCAT or CDSE.

Training to become a pilot is obviously an expensive task. Hence scholarships and freeships help the candidate to offload their financial burden.
In India, government flying clubs support schemes which are offered by various government institutions who finance loans for candidates who are looking for CPL training.
For general category candidates, who fall under a certain defined value of family income, Nagar Nigams have schemes for freeships are loans.
For those who belong to the Other Backward Castes, Schedule Tribes and Schedule Castes, their respective commissions have schemes to offer loans, scholarships and freeships to candidates belonging to their respective commissions.
Under such schemes, the funding is provided by the authority directly in the name of the flying schools where the candidate has enrolled himself.
This process involves a lot of documentation and paper formality. The file hence created is made to go through various sanctions and approvals. Hence the process becomes lengthy and time taking. So you to be really patient and calm if you are looking for any such scholarship or freeship or loan from the authority.
I hope I have given you enough information about the subject for you to decide wisely. Good Luck.
Any further query is most welcomed.

One needs to be at their toes in order to meet the needs and for the satisfacton of the customers. One may face a lot of irate customers but a person working in the hospitality sector has to face them all without being impolite.
As it is a 24x7 sector, the shift timings may change and some shifts may be difficult to do as it would require working though the night. Also, the growth prospect in this industry is based on sheer hardwork and a lot of patience as an aspirant has to follow certain hierarchy in the companies they work for. A person working on a ship or a cruise liner would face even more difficulties both physically and mentally as they would spend sometimes almost 3-6 months at the sea at a stretch.
